John,
I'm pessimistic :) I use private datasession for forms. My base form is set to use "private data session" + in load event sets those "set ..." that are scoped to current datasession.
set date to dmy && European countries generaly use DMY format - and Turkey
set century on
set century to 19 rollover 60
set exclusive off
set multilocks on
set reprocess to 1 && Again personal
&& and I control rlock() in a loop explicitly where needed
&& Only in 1 or 2 places it's needed ie: assigning a newID

>>Yes. It's config.fpw format. However I keep in mind that reprocess, exclusive, multilocks etc are scoped to current data session. I don't thrust the behaviour of VFP for such ones and set them explicitly for any new session (base form load event).
